Brown Memorial Home, Inc.

In 1894, six inspired women created a home-like healthcare facility for the elderly in Circleville, Ohio. Their idea was to offer nursing as much as nurturing, and companionship as much as compassion. Through their hard work and dedication, they transformed their vision into a nonprofit healthcare facility, then known as the Circleville Home and Hospital. It continued under that name for more than 79 years. Seeing the good work accomplished at the facility, local residents Paul and Alice Brown chose to contribute to the ongoing efforts of such a worthy cause. To that end, in 1973 Alice bequeathed a portion of her estate to what then became known as Brown Memorial Home. It has since grown to include skilled, assisted living and residential services.
